Night Nurse Strain

The use of cannabis has always been controversial, not to mention, a health and legal issue. Activists from all over the world have advocated its medical use. In fact, that is the only reason why its cultivation, sale, distribution, and use is allowed. Looking at the thousands of hybrids, though, it seems most cater to recreational use. Night Nurse, on the contrary, was developed for medical purposes.

It is an 80% Indica-dominant strain, but it comes with mild cerebral effects. In essence, it may uplift the mood, but in most cases, it also helps patients rest well.

Reeferman Seeds used three strains to create Night Nurse – Hash Plant, Harmony, and Fire OG.

Hash Plant is Sensi Seeds’ classic strain and is a cross between an Afghani landrace Indica and Northern Lights. It is an almost pure Indica hybrid that delivers an intense body high. Harmony, like the Night Nurse, is a product of a three-way cross. Among its most notable traits is in providing an uplifting sensation and buzz. Finally, one of the strongest OG strains is the Fire OG. Not only does it have red hair covering its buds (hence its name), it also has an insanely high THC content.

As one can see, each of the notable traits of the three parent strains is present in the Night Nurse. Where it differentiates itself from the others is in the manner by which the physical-high blends with the cerebral effects. Also, it was a past winner of the High Times Cannabis Cup.

Growing

The home and the garden can be the hospital where one can find the Night Nurse. Although she is not the easiest strain to cultivate, it is still possible for beginners to grow it and make it thrive. Of course, that requires a lot of effort on the part of growers – not only in tending but also in learning.

At any rate, the Night Nurse grows indoor without trouble but where it really thrives the best is in the outdoors.

Flowering Time

Indoors

Like many Indica plants, the Night Nurse is ready to begin the bloom stage in as early as seven weeks. Come harvest time, growers can expect a yield of 14 ounces per square meter.

Outdoors

In an open space, the Night Nurse is free to grow to her full potential. Some people take the chance and try to hide it in their garden, good for them. Of course, we recommend cultivating cannabis only where it is legal. At any rate, she starts transitioning to the flowering stage before the start of October. Each plant can produce as much as 28 ounces of elongated buds covered with trichomes.
